Gisto


Regardless of whether you’re a novice programmer or an experienced one, chances are extremely high that you actively use the massive online code repository GitHub. And if you do, Gisto is something you must absolutely use on Windows 10. Built on the same backend infrastructure as GitHub, Gisto is an extremely versatile and feature loaded application that lets you manage and organize your GitHub hosted code snippets or Gists (hence the name) super easy. Gisto includes Ace, a feature-rich code editor having a ton of goodies (such as syntax highlighting and auto-complete) that you can use to directly edit your code snippets. What’s more, you can add helpful information to your snippets (tags, description, categories etc.) which not only lets you find them super fast, but also makes their overall management a breeze. Apart from that, Gisto lets you quickly share your gists (code snippets) with other users, and all you need to do that is the recipient’s GitHub username. Add to this the super awesome revision browser (for tracking all the changes you’ve made to the snippets) and drag and drop functionality, and there’s absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t be using Gisto as a code snippet manager for Windows 10.
